Many of the virii look up smtp settings in the mail, when they look-up the addressbokk for possible friends to visit;-)
So all we are going to see is the virii inheriting the user SPF record. All we are going to achieve is being able to bust ass of the lamers if we take legal recourse. Just imagining the cost and the uselessness is a nightmare.
Straddling the fence normally gives an ache in a very bad place;-)
I agree with both the statements. We employ automated filters for the spam, including dnsbls, but instead of refusing mail, filter it to a seperate mailbox, which is then scanned by people when they are free, and routinely by one person.
I agree it costs...but I remember a false positive that led to a deal worh couple of hundred thousand dollars. It was followed up after about a week of actual incoming date.
We are presently thinking of using less strict automated reverse filtering to get possible false positives from this spam box and reviewing it on a priority basis.

Ha...mutant means one who evolves...from more to less and less to more...and tax payer money is just that;-) They have to spend it...what if they get their budget extinguished? Hell...they can replace those space shuttles...with tomato harvesters...as long as money is being spent.
And the shrinks call it obsessive Compulsive disorder....to spend compulsively when you dont need it;-)
Wellll...if AI grows to be as intelligent as man...I am sure its going to find some of us inhuman and start squashing our heads;-)
Thats what man has done...become intelligent enough to develop philosophies and circumvent black & white definations...how long will it take them....huh...shall we start hiding all the politicians and dictators;-)
But then maybe robots will require them to learn how to fudge the meaning of the word human and maybe that of the ethics too!
for honor among people changes a shade of color as one moves from a people to a people
-Somebody said this & I would have put his name here if I had known it;-)
Ahhhh...all its left for them to do is patent human ethics and for the next couple of decades I can become a bank robber...for surely being ethical would be violation of patents;-)
